Flight Timetable
The Flight Timetable service provides the ability to identify flight schedules by the day of the week. Requests can be submitted for the timetable for a specific flight or for a general timetable. In addition to returning non-stop and direct flights, connections can also be included.
Note: Worldspan (1P) does not support timetables for specific flights.
Request
FlightTimeTableReq is used to make a Flight Timetable request. Submit:
- FlightTimeTableCriteria/GeneralTimeTable to return a general time table of flight schedules by the day of the week.
- FlightTimeTableCriteria/SpecificTimeTable to return schedules that meet specific criteria.
Note: A valid flight number is mandatory. However, because a flight-specific time table is not supported by Worldspan (1P), when FlightNumber is included in SpecificTimeTable, the timetable that is returned shows all flights operated by the carrier. A warning is also returned : The flight specific search is not supported by this provider. The timetable for all the flights for the carrier will be displayed.
A NextResultReference may be returned in FlightTimeTableRsp if more rates are available. It can be submitted in a subsequent FlightTimeTableReq to retrieve the additional rates.
